Over the last few years I have helped obtain many favorable results for my clients, including millions of dollars of judgments, dismissal of claims through dispositive motions, favorable settlements, and other victories.

My name is Ken Stover, and I have spent the last 19 years working on criminal cases. I was a prosecuting attorney for four years, and I have been defending the rights of people who were accused of crimes for 15 years. I understand what you are up against, and I will protect your rights and your future.. "Defense attorneys are the gatekeepers of justice." — Ken Stover. It's true. The prosecution's job is to get a conviction. My job is to see that justice is served on your behalf. During my time as a prosecutor, I watched as many people who had been arrested, were treated unfairly by the courts. I became a defense attorney to prevent that from happening.

My goal is to provide compassionate advice to my clients who are going through a difficult time. I am licensed in Nevada and Washington state (inactive).  I began my career by completing a rigorous clerkship where I worked on a multitude of cases in various areas of law. Currently, I'm continuing my work in public interest law with a local legal non-profit organization.  I believe it is important to remain active in the profession and contribute to the community. To that end, I am involved in numerous bar associations and have volunteered for several non-profits Seattle and Reno.  In my spare time, I  enjoy cheering on the Gonzaga Bulldogs and the Nevada Wolf Pack.

My experience includes a wide range of complex matters. I have agressively represented clients at trial (jury and non-jury), private mediations, and arbitrations. The areas of law I have practiced include: intellectual property, civil RICO, business disputes, shareholder derivative actions, commercial, construction, insurance, Lanham Act, unfair competition, trademarks, copyrights, rights to publicity, bankruptcy (creditor), employment discrimination, breach of fiduciary duty, and trade secrets.I have assisted clients with issues including business transactions; trademarks; copyrights; contract drafting and review; intellectual property licensing; e-business agreements; and the legal aspects of purchasing and selling businesses, real estate, and personal property.Outside of the office I enjoy the outdoors, hunting, fly fishing, camping, hiking, climbing, mountian biking, and making wine.
